Calling all Ute posters for prognostications!

Our guys competed last year...should have won that game easily...Sitake had

I'm expecting between 6-6 and 8-4.

Magnum was a true freshman against decent defenses

BYU '80

6/28/17 2:30pm

Mangum was bad against good defenses.

displacedute

6/28/17 2:34pm

Did you forget the 2nd half of the Vegas Bowl?

Westsider

6/28/17 2:38pm

No, I didn't.

displacedute

6/28/17 2:41pm

He was very bad in the first half, very good in the second half

Westsider

6/28/17 2:53pm

He was much better in the second half, but I'm not sure he was "very good".

displacedute

6/28/17 3:00pm

That's an argument that can be said about Utah too

BrutustheBrash

6/28/17 4:00pm

I wasn't saying it's a gimme.

displacedute

6/28/17 4:22pm

By anae you mean the guy with potential

BYU '80

6/28/17 2:59pm

Yes.

displacedute

6/28/17 3:01pm

Ok. We will see

Find a true freshman that isn't,

BYU '80

6/28/17 3:00pm

He was 22 years old.

displacedute

6/28/17 3:05pm

Sure it is. Three years removed probably a bigger disadvantage than 18

BYU '80

6/28/17 3:09pm

I'm saying being 22 makes you better than being 18.

displacedute

6/28/17 3:16pm

Mental advantage but definitely not athletically or skills

D.T. Survivor

6/28/17 4:19pm

Skills probably not.

displacedute

6/28/17 6:14pm

A little bit. Have you been on a mission?

D.T. Survivor

6/28/17 9:14pm

Exactly. Missions generally hinder athletic ability.

Boise state had several NFL guys on that defense and he did pretty well

BYU '80

6/28/17 3:03pm

No, he didn't.

displacedute

6/28/17 3:12pm

So not bad in either case. Move the goal posts much?

BYU '80

6/29/17 12:07am

Boise was a good defense and he was good.

Quacker

6/28/17 3:27pm

Tried to convince my other BYU fan friends that this was the case, to no avail.

runitup590

6/28/17 5:45pm

You can't convince people of things they can see aren't true

BYU '80

6/29/17 12:08am

I would buy the 8-4 more than the 6-6

jkarren777

6/28/17 3:24pm

I'm too worried about the OL to feel confident in that.

displacedute

6/28/17 3:27pm

I think that while the OL will take a step back from last year, the starters

No one here cares

BYU '80

6/29/17 12:09am

The OP specifically asked for this analysis.

displacedute

6/29/17 10:05am

Utah will do Utah things. I don't think offensively they will be a juggernaut

jkarren777

6/28/17 3:36pm

Thanks for the report. Good analysis and rational thinking. Best of luck minus a

Utah has exceeded the predicted win total by an average of 2 wins over the past

Regal Ute

6/28/17 2:30pm

and I wouldn't be surprised to see utah regress to the mean after 3 yrs

ManicBlue

I don't think the schedule is any different...

Thanks for sharing. I hope the pompous attitude

Your program has been up since Kalani stepped on campus and Bronco left it

Speaking for myself, I haven't felt confident going into any game with Utah for

theozfam

6/28/17 10:00pm

You guys went from non bcs to pompous bcs overnight

BYU '80

6/29/17 12:11am

I think they will exceed that too. Six wins seems low.

D.T. Survivor

6/29/17 3:50pm

Here's my thing..

FulhamUte

6/28/17 3:03pm

Man, those are some depressing numbers from the BYU side of things.

keilbyu

6/28/17 3:32pm

Pretty interesting numbers...very good post

zerome4sooners

6/28/17 4:51pm

I bet you'd find the same if you stretched it back to 1996, the last time we

runitup590

6/28/17 5:57pm

1996

FulhamUte

6/29/17 11:30am

Byu was ahead or closer than ten most of the game last year

BYU '80

6/29/17 12:14am

Utah "tries to expand the lead.."

FulhamUte

6/29/17 11:33am

KW was not the HC in '01, but I get the point.

Cougstreak

6/29/17 11:41am

Outside of the RBs the rest have done next to nothing

BYU '80

6/29/17 12:15am

Sorry- you're not watching Utah football to say that..

FulhamUte

RE: Sorry- you're not watching Utah football to say that..

BYU '80

6/29/17 11:55am

8-4...50/50 against BYU. This one I feel less confident about than the last

Rise as Utes

6/28/17 3:39pm

Since 1993, Utah leads the Holy War 16-7. Utah wins again vs BYU, goes 8-4.

DoseOfReality

6/28/17 3:54pm

so, simply by inductive reasoning?

yahtzee

6/28/17 9:30pm

8-4 is based on the current team - I just had to get in that 16-7 jab.

DoseOfReality

6/30/17 9:29am

7-5 with 60% probability that BYU wins this year.
